Mozilla is going for the Guinness world record for downloads in a day to promote their new browser. Do you think they'll count source code downloads of us non-windows users? I sure couldn't tell anything from the FAQ.

The hype is that it's a new major version with some new cool features. By the end of the year, 1 in 4 surfers, or more, will be using it. Considering that this brand did not exist just over 3 years ago is pretty much something.

I was glad to see a couple weeks ago that the native FreeBSD version in ports (www/flock) was updated to from 0.x.x to 1.1.x so I won't have to use the linux-flock port for long on my laptop with luck hehe.

While Im always a die hard Opera user and support them from the day I started using it, I have to say this time the latest Opera version (at least for FreeBSD) fails in comparison to the rival. So many annoying bugs, which never happens with all previous stable releases, some of them drove me insane. In other hand, Firefox under Windows is exceptionally amazing. It works flawlessly, startup time is close to instance (yes it starts up almost instantly), very reponsive and looks neat.

Also, I would tip my hat to the Mozilla marketing team. They did a tremedous job. Firefox wouldnt be as popular as atm without them for sure

Yeah, the new Opera 9.50 isn't exactly the best release they ever made ... It was released just one or two days after Firefox 3, the Opera team probably rushed the release for competition with Firefox...

As another die hard Opera user, I find that the linux 9.50 is better than the Windows version I use to read these forums. For some reason mark as read does not work in the windows version for me Haven't installed the native FreeBSD version 9.50 yet.

I still haven't tried the new FF...someone told me the best feature is the NES plugin. I really can't see that as a reason for me to try it...

I notice this bug from the the first 9.5 beta version which make some pages stay unchanged. It could happen when you attempt to log in but Opera delivers you the same login page again, no redirection or after applying some changes but nothing happens.

Its Firefox thread and we are talking too much about Opera, sorry Firefox guys
